Adobe Lightroom is an uncluttered, intuitive programme for storing, cataloguing, keywording, adjusting and outputting your digital photographs as RAW, TIFF and JPEG files. On this course you will learn how to effectively manage, edit and showcase your photographs using this software. Learn how Lightroom helps you to work efficiently with one image, an entire shoot, or a large image library, and gain an understanding of the relative merits of Lightroom over other applications such as Photoshop and Bridge.
